Are illegal immigrants a major problem for Britain?

The unsafe and primitive outbuildings were pinpointed when a spy plane equipped with thermal imaging to detect possible human life flew over Slough, Berkshire.

Beds in sheds is a growing problem across the UK. Unscrupulous property owners either build outhouses in their gardens or convert garages and sheds and rent them out to mainly illegal immigrants at extortionate rates.

Those found living in illegal accommodation with the right to be in the UK will be offered help finding somewhere else to live. Illegal immigrants will face removal.
